Call for Papers
Conference Title: Sixty Years on: How the Holocaust looks Now
Location: UK-Leicester, 11-14 April 2005
Deadline for Proposals: 4 June 2004

Description: The Stanley Burton Centre for Holocaust Studies invites proposals for individual papers to be presented at a conference to mark the sixtieth anniversary of the liberation of the concentration camps. The aim of this conference is to reflect on the significance of the Holocaust sixty years afterwards: to remember what happened, to review the present state of knowledge about it, to highlight deficits in current research on it, to assess how the post-Holocaust world has treated it, to explore how it remains latent in contemporary society and culture.

Key-Note speakers: Wolfgang Benz, Eveline Goodman-Thau, Peter Longerich, Michael Marrus.
